What Autumn Brings

When the colors of gold and russet are here
Listen for my voice for I'll be near
When the warm days of summer are just a memory
I'll come to you and never again apart will we be
As the spring awakens all living things
The soft gentle state of slumber is what Autumn brings
A slumber that will take you back to days of long ago
To another time and place you long to go
Where we will walk in the moon's light
Counting the stars as they twinkle in the night
And when the colors have faded away
I'll still be here forever to stay
No more will I be just a memory
For I know now I belong forever with thee.
